Retzlaff QBR is #64 out of 131 total

Are you seriously comparing him to Dart - who is in his FOURTH season starting

oxcoug

No he is not…he is saying if we had Dart with this team we are probably ranked

They did destroy Kentucky and make quite a statement there…

He didn’t say Dart with Ole Miss…

Yeah OK fair enough. Would be great to have Jaxson right now.

As a Kaysville native it always kills me when good Ktown kids go elsewhere.

We would for sure be a top 5 team

The reason Dart didn't come to BYU was because Jaren Hall had the position

The ceiling for this team is the offense. We'll find out this weekend.

I think we're all aware that Retzlaff is not an elite QB this year. Don't know if he'll take a step up next year either.

I think he will take a step up. Not sure what the marginal gail will be

niqmadu

And I’m sure many CB’ers will bemoan the ones that haven’t happened yet as well

Could have had a legendary season with just a good, above average QB

Retzlaff has some special plays in him, and his mobility outside the pocket is

Can he fix his mechanics this off-season is the biggest question?

John Beck was on BYU SN last week saying his throwing motion is his best, most

He also said that the old set high release point wisdom is dated and not

oxcoug

So what is causing his accuracy issues? The fade wasn't even close.

maYbe

7:17am

I'd say he tracks pretty close to sophomore / 2013 Taysom Hill in the sense that

oxcoug

7:24am

And how many deflected/batted balls has he had this season?

acadian8

7:21am

Beck also addressed that - said it was clear that Utah had schemed to do that

oxcoug

7:29am

Unlikely. I think he will improve a lot over the next offseason

donnerstag

He can’t throw the long ball to save his life.

NonmormonYfan89

7:20am

Huh wut? That's fundamentally not the case. He's thrown dimes on several long

oxcoug

7:27am

His long ball is above average...his misses are medium throws.

This is right. His deep strikes have occasionally been spectacular though you'd

I bet his completion % further than 30yds is under 25%

Links have been posted by Indy and others here showing that Jake's "Big Time

oxcoug

Hes far from elite and only had a few comps in air over 30 yds the entire season

Das_Countach

I think he's better at line-drive long balls than those that require touch

I’ll always have more patience with a QB that has a strong arm & can run, but he

His throws to Lassiter at Baylor and JoJo vs SUI were touch dimes that

Too bad he used up his dimes for the year

Retzlaff is better at quarterbacking than I am at fanning.

HenderCoug

9:05am

And as far as I can tell you're about a 6.0 at fanning so Jake is like 6.5

oxcoug

The grass isn't always greener. Live in the now and appreciate it.

ElkaholicCoug

So, he's among the best QBs in college football!

acadian8

Point. So so play. Imagine our team with a high end QB. ARod has done a good job

So he's kind of an average QB who plays above average at times.
